Energy Booster

Help me give my students snacks they need that will provide them with the energy they need to be focused in class during individual/group work. This will keep my students from starving before they get lunch.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hunter's classroom raised $234

My Project

The supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! The snacks will be placed in a bin in the back of the classroom and used during mini-lessons and swap time and for a typical brain break. The snacks will be used by the students to fuel their brain during instruction time. The snacks will also be used for students who are not fortunate to bring their own snacks to school. These snacks will also hold my students over since we have a late lunch and I don't want them to lose their energy or motivation but to increase it and support it.
